Hi,
I can't speak directly to your question regarding pulsing Wellbutrin, but I too struggle with it pooping out and it's the only thing that "sorta" works for me. I take the XL version, 300 mg, and I am looking into switching to the SR. I would be doing this for a number of reasons, but one of the main attractions to me is opening up dosage options not available on the XL. It frustrates me that 150, 300, and 450 are the only possible doses, like 100% or 50% increase (or decrease) of dosage might be just the micro-change I need. For me, 300 isn't enough, but 450 is too much, and the sides outweigh the benefits. On the SR, you have the option of 200, 250, 350, and 400 opened up. Granted, 2 of these require you to take 2 different strength pills, but I've searched the boards and there are plenty of people who have taken unusual doses of Wellbutrin. So, maybe you could experiment with several of these atypical doses, and see if these 150 mg jumps and dips they force us to make might be part of the problem. Just a thought. Good luck!
